Any sufficiently advanced technology would appear as magic to the primitive. This is a theme repeated frequently in the show. 

The life forms you mentioned are simply more advanced than humanity can comprehend, they are not magical.

The Q are pretty fucking magical, to be honest. DeLancie's Q even suggests that all of their powers come from the mind, not from technology.
